Re: I-Pod Nano Stress Test
I would probably still go for the mini as it can still be sync'd using firewire where as the Nano is USB only. Apart from that I would get the nano as it looks amazing.
Also you can get a 6GB mini for the price of a 4GB Nano.

Worth noting that thats giga bit not giga byte meaning that each chip effectivly has 2GB storage. Not that thats a small amount at all.

Re: I-Pod Nano Stress Test
You make want to hold off on those impuse purchases at the moment, it may not be all its 'cracked' up to be yet
You may prefer to wait for the MKII

Re: I-Pod Nano Stress Test
Argos do an MP3 player for £20 that uses SD cards.
As for the nano, isn't that the one that gets scratched by the wind?

I don't understand how that can be, given the extensive testing undertaken in the orginal link at the top of this thread!
BBC are reporting the 'problem' now as well:

Re: I-Pod Nano Stress Test
We are already there in terms of minature hard drives, remember Hitachi's Mikey and Slim? http://www.mobilewhack.com/reviews/h...ll_phones.html
60gb in a 1.8" drive is a real achievement imo when compared with what we have now.
